Breaking down the biggest spring game in years

Sam Fremin will be on the desk on Saturday, but Penn Stated co-host Donnie Collins will be at Beaver Stadium for his "favorite" day of the year, the Blue-White Game at 2 p.m. on Saturday. But both hosts think this game has a chance to be one of the most educational spring-practice-ending games in recent memory.
On this week's episode of Penn Stated, the hosts break down the positions to watch in Saturday's game, led by a group of talented but inexperienced cornerbacks and a receiving corps that underachieved and underwhelmed in 2023. Which players in that group have the best chance to stand out heading into the summer?
Donnie and Sam also spend some time discussing the commitment of Spring-Ford High School quarterback Matt Zollers - one of the top prospects in Pennsylvania in the 2025 recruiting class - to Missouri. What does that say about the role NIL is playing in college sports? And, is it necessarily a bad thing for the game to see a top prospect eschew the top schools in favor of better opportunities at an up-and-coming program?
